As a non-African American I feel strongly that it is not my right to judge or comment about individual decisions made by members of this vital and significant part of America’s population. Additionally what gives me the right to judge music currently being made by people young enough to be my grand-children?
That being said, as someone who came of age in the late 60’s loving soul music and its creators I do find that the dynamic and talented stars of the contemporary music scene[[s) seem to me to be more interested in projecting images of their wealth than perhaps extolling the values of education, voting, and community service.
